The IDF confirmed that it killed Al-Manar correspondent Ali Shoeib. The IDF spokesperson claimed that Shoeib operated under the guise of a journalist as a terrorist in the intelligence unit of Hezbollah's Radwan Force. "The terrorist engaged in incitement against IDF forces and Israeli citizens while serving as a conduit for disseminating Hezbollah propaganda. Even during Operation Northern Arrows, he continued his activities and reported on the location of IDF forces operating in southern Lebanon," the statement said.
